3 tb Peanut oil

      1 ts Salt

      4    Garlic cloves

           - lightly crushed & peeled
  1 1/2 lb Bok choy

           - cut into 1-in pieces
  HEAT THE WOK over a high flame for 1 minute. Add the oil, and when the oil
  is very hot (this will take just a few seconds; pass your hand over it to
  feel the heat, or look for a wisp of smoke), add the salt, garlic and bok
  choy. A common mistake is to skimp on oil in stir-frying vegetables, which
  makes them dry out and burn. Use enough oil to coat the vegetables thinly
  but thoroughly. This may be prepared in advance and served cold.
